Michael Spence
Michael Spence (7 de noviembre de 1943) es un economista Americano, criado en Canada, ganador del Premio 2001 Nobel de Economía, junto a Jorge A. Akerlof y Joseph E. Stiglitz, por su trabajo sobre la dinámica de los flujos de información y el desarrollo de mercado, investigación que realizó durante su estancia en la Universidad de Harvard. En el actual contexto de permanente innovación tecnológica, con flujos cada vez más abundantes de información sobre el mercado, precios, márgenes de beneficio, tasas de interés e instrumentos de la inversión, su contribución es extremadamente valiosa.
Michael Spence es reconocido mundialmente por su modelo de señales del mercado del trabajo, que ha revolucionado la teoría de contrato en el campo de la economía. Según en este modelo, los empleados envian señales acerca de sus habilidades a sus jefes al adquirir cierto grado de educación. Los jefes pagarán salarios más altos a los empleados más capacitados, pues saben que la proporción de empleados capacitados es más alta entre los empleados mejor preparados. De la misma manera será menos costoso para ellos adquirir habilidades de empleados con capacidades bajas. Para que el modelo funcione, no es necesario siquiera que la educación tenga un valor intrínseco siempre que ésta transmita "signal" la información entre el remitente (el empleado) y el receptor (el jefe) incluido el costo de la señal.
En 1966, Spence obtuvo la prestigiosa Beca Rhodes de la Universidad de Oxford, es graduado de la Universidad de Princeton, Ex-Decano de la Escuela de Negocios de la Universidad de Stanford y actualmente Director de la Comisión del Banco Mundial sobre Crecimiento y Desarrollo.

Burt Rutan
Elbert Leander "Burt" Rutan (born June 17, 1943 in Estacada, Oregon) is an American aerospace engineer noted for his originality in designing light, strong, unusual-looking, energy-efficient aircraft. He is most famous for his design of the record-breaking Voyager, which was the first plane to fly around the world without stopping or refueling, and the suborbital rocket plane SpaceShipOne, which won the Ansari X-Prize in 2004 for becoming the first privately funded spacecraft to enter the realm of space twice within a two week period.
By the time he was eight years old he was designing and building model aircraft. His first solo flight in a full scale plane was an Aeronca Champ in 1959, when he was sixteen. In 1965 he graduated third in his class from California Polytechnic University with an aeronautical engineering degree. From 1965 to 1972 Rutan worked for the U.S. Air Force at Edwards Air Force Base as a flight test project engineer, working on nine separate projects including fighter spin tests and the LTV XC-142 VSTOL transport. Shortly after, he became director of the Bede Test Center for Bede Aircraft, in Newton, Kansas, a position he held until 1974.Rutan struck out on his own in June of 1974 with the creation of the Rutan Aircraft Factory in the Mojave Desert, where he designed and developed prototypes for a number of aircraft, mostly homebuilt.
His first design was the Rutan VariViggen, a two-seat pusher with a canard in front. The canard was later to become a standard feature in most Rutan designs. In April 1982, Burt Rutan founded Scaled Composites,LLC, which has become one of the world's pre-eminent aircraft design and prototyping facilities. Scaled Composites is headquartered in Mojave, California. Rutan is married to Tonya Rutan, his fourth wife.
